The regulation of lncRNAs in post-transcription. (A) LncRNA combines with pri-miRNA to inhibit its maturation or as the precursor of some miRNAs to regulate their maturation. (B) LncRNA absorbs miRNAs as a sponge or decoy to regulate target genes of miRNA (C). LncRNA competes with miRNA for same site to prevent the combination of genes and miRNAs. (D) LncRNA interacts with the coding regions of mRNA, and then combines with translation repressor to inhibit translation of target mRNA.
